My next semp buying excursions, whether they be online or in Oregon will be focused on getting some more fuzzy or velvety textured semps. But in the meantime, here's a container planting I threw together so as to showcase the fuzzy or velvety looking semps members that I already have. They're mostly noids except for the Neptune and Zeleborii:

To mix and mess with quotes "a semp is a semp is a semp and regardless the name would look as sweet"

You really have some healthy looking NOIDs there.
